  1. [quote name='uzzell' post='957754' date='Sep 15 2010, 09:56 PM']How is this still availible? Its criminal that top basses arent going for the right money.

    Have a bump and good luck.

    P.S - Please someone buy it so I dont end up selling a kidney for it. :rolleyes:[/quote]


    You're right, it does seem strange that I cant seem to shift it. I'm not sure if it is this item or the market in general but sadly for me this is still here and I could really do with shifting it. Anyone? :)

  2. [quote name='uzzell' post='954172' date='Sep 12 2010, 10:54 PM']Wow, what a beaut! Perhaps I should add this too my Sandberg arsenal.

    What is the nut width on this one?[/quote]

    Hi

    The nut is 44mm. A fraction smaller than my other Sandberg 5 string.

    Thanks.

  3. [quote name='martthebass' post='952211' date='Sep 10 2010, 08:09 PM']My old KT5 (about 2005/6) was 34'' and wasn't custom.[/quote]

    Good for you.

    As I said, I can only assume the origins of the bass based on the information to hand. The fact that it says 'custom shop instrument' leads me to believe that it is in fact a custom shop item.

  4. The year is 2006 and having just measured it, the scale is definately 34".

    I can only assume that if you are right that all pre 2009 strings were 35" that the scale reduction was a custom feature, thus confirming the custom shop tag on the headstock. Obviously I can only assume this as I bought this second hand off the original owner.

    Thanks for all the interest.

  5. [quote name='thedontcarebear' post='951864' date='Sep 10 2010, 02:37 PM']I got excited as I thought it was orange from the photos, but the description says red, boooo.[/quote]


    You see, this is where it gets a bit confusing. Its certainly not what you would call a red red if you know what I mean. Its not a million miles away from the Fender fiesta red used on the new Squier P Bass if that makes sense. Sadly, it isnt a solid orange either though that would be cool.

    The photos dont really do it justice so as soon as I get a chance to take some outdoor pictures to show exactly what it looks like I will do.

    Hope that helps.

  6. [quote name='larssonanton' post='951856' date='Sep 10 2010, 02:31 PM']This is a 34" or a 35" scale? And what year is it built?[/quote]

    Sorry, confusion regarding copied text from Sandberg website. This bass is 34" scale.

    All Sandberg 35" scales are made to order I believe.

  7. In light of buying a couple of basses last week it is with a heavy heart that I have to move on this wonderful bass.

    This particular bass is an early custom shop model and is finished in a lovelly red accompanied with a delicate soft aged finish. Lovelly rosewood finger board and 2 Delano J pickups powered by active bass and treble pre amp complete the picture.

    Some details copied form the Sandberg website:

    [size=3]NECK
    6 x bolted / canadian hardrock maple

    FRETBOARD
    22 frets

    SCALE
    864 mm / 34"


    HARDWARE sandberg
    PICKUP 2 Delano J-style

    PREAMP sandberg 2-band, active / passive, passive tone control
    [/size]

    Comes complete with pristine original gig bag and all tools, and I will throw in some strap locks too.

    This is a truely wonderful bass and one that I would love to keep but off to university soon so need to realise some cash in my possesions so sadly this need to go. I am hoping to get £720 for it and for obvious reasons no trades please.

    Please excuse the photos, lighting in my flat is terrible but will upload better pictures as soon as I can.





    Thanks for looking.

  8. Due to a recent endorsment deal with a different drum manufacturer this pedal is now no longer needed.

    This pedal is simply awesome. Tight and responsive feel together with utterly dependable build quality. I have only owned it for 4 months and in that time it has only picked up very minor cosmetic scuffs. As I say, new sponsorship from a rival company has left it redundant so hoping to get some of the £170 I spent on it.

    Comes with a purpose made smart nylon bag with shoulder strap and drum key.

    This is what it looks like but will post pictures of the actual unit tomorrow;



    All the information about this item can be found at the [url="http://www.dwdrums.com/hardware/5000/pedals.asp"]DW website here.[/url]

    Hoping to get £100 for it.

    Please dont hesitate if you have any questions.
